As a promising high-voltage cathode material candidate for next-generation high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), spinel-type LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 (LNMO) has attracted significant attention due to its high operating voltage (~4.7 V). However, its intrinsic structural instability and severe surfacial side reactions lead to poor cycling stability and rate capability. This study presents an innovative low-temperature calcination strategy to synthesize Ti/F co-doped LNMO (LNMO-TiF3-x) cathode materials, utilizing TiF3 as a dual-functional dopant. Both experimental and theoretical investigations demonstrate that the introduced Ti3+/Ti4+ redox couple activates additional Mn-based capacity within the 4.2 V region, while contributing a minor yet measurable reversible capacity. Simultaneously, Ti/F co-doping strengthens the lattice through covalent bonding, effectively suppressing transition metal dissolution and synergistically enhancing cycling stability. Furthermore, Ti4+ doping expands the (111) lattice spacing, which facilitates Li+ diffusion kinetics and significantly enhances rate capabilities. The optimized LNMO-TiF3-4 exhibits outstanding performance, delivering 131.9 mAh g-1 at 10 C and maintaining 72.4% capacity retention after 1000 cycles at 5 C. This work not only demonstrates the high electrochemical performance of LNMO-TiF3-x but also offers new insights into bulk-interface synergistic engineering for advanced high-voltage cathode materials.

Titanium nitride (TiN) is a versatile ceramic material renowned for its high hardness, excellent electrical conductivity, and plasmonic effects, yet its performance is highly dependent on its stoichiometry ( x in TiN x ). The synthesis of near-stoichiometric TiN powder (0.98 ≤ x ≤ 1.01), which exhibits optimal properties, remains challenging due to a mismatch between mass transfer and reaction kinetics. Herein, we developed a novel fluidized-bed process involving the controlled formation and subsequent dechlorination of a stoichiometric TiNCl coating on seed particles, achieving a final stoichiometry of x = 0.99. The introduction of NH 3 was identified as a critical step for effectively reducing residual chlorine impurity. Furthermore, a self-exfoliation mechanism during the transformation from TiNCl to TiN was revealed. This precursor stoichiometry locking strategy, combined with a fluidized-bed process, not only achieves a 161-fold improvement in dechlorination efficiency over the fixed-bed system but also exhibits a high synthesis rate (∼13 g h −1 in a 30 mm-diameter reactor), demonstrating great promise for the scalable production of near-stoichiometric TiN powder.

La- and Nb-doped BaTi 2 O 5 (BT 2 ) spherical glasses were prepared by a containerless aerodynamic levitation method and their glass-forming regions were established. It is found that La-doping on the Ba-site (network-modifier) and Nb-doping on the Ti-site (network-former) show distinct difference in the glass-forming region: less than 10 % La can replace Ba whereas 40 % Nb can incorporate into BT 2 glass. The distinction in glass-forming ability induced by La- and Nb-doping is discussed mainly from the structural arrangement of the glass. Raman spectroscopy analysis shows that La-doping elongates the short Ti–O bonds in the distorted [TiO 5 ] polyhedra and thus relaxes the network. Nb-doping introduces [NbO 6 ] polyhedra into BT 2 and there exists a critical doping level (20 %), below which incorporation of Nb into BT 2 relaxes the [TiO n ] polyhedra by shortening the long Ti–O bond and above which [NbO 6 ] starts to participate in the network skeleton construction resulting in a dramatic change in the glass structure, which is supported by the dramatic change in the exothermic peak on the DTA curves. This work triggers the speculation that the network-modifiers in BT 2 glass possess a very important role in the structure of network-former skeleton than those in glasses based on traditional network-former oxides such as SiO 2 , GeO 2 and B 2 O 3 , which may provide a useful strategy for modifying the properties of these novel glasses by chemical doping.

Carbon coatings hold great promise for next-generation non-conductive energy storage nanomaterials . However, simplicity, stable, uniformity and high-performance remain unresolved issues. Here, unique synergy of the fluidized bed reactor with plasmas enables highly-effective, single-step fluidized-bed plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (FB-PECVD) of uniform, low-temperature carbon coatings on TiO 2 nano-powder (TiO 2 @C). Plasma-specific effects induce the formation of new phases that are beneficial for energy storage. The 6 nm carbon layer is grown within only 10 min, while the TiO 2 maintains its anatase phase. The unique plasma conditions make it possible to form Ti–C bonds at the Ti/C interface at much lower temperatures than achievable otherwise. The electronic transport at the interface and structural stability are thus greatly improved. Consequently, TiO 2 @C shows excellent electrochemical performances as a negative electrode of sodium ion battery , such as specific discharge capacity of 290.2 mA h g −1 at 50 mA g −1 and very stable long-term cyclability (101.2% capacity retention over 300 cycles at 4000 mA g −1 ). Our results show that FB-PECVD is not only a versatile method for bond-reinforced interface nanoparticle coating with carbon, but also provide a new strategy for designing hybrid-phase electrochemically active nanocomposite materials.

The large losses and UV-light instability of traditional pesticide formulations during spraying lead to low drug utilization and a threat to the environment and human health. In this work, a tannic acid and iron ion functionalized titanium dioxide pillared montmorillonite drug sustained-release system was successfully prepared. Pillared montmorillonite showed good foliar retention after tannin modification to prevent the loss of the drug during spraying. Under the irradiation of UV light, the shielding and absorption of UV light by the montmorillonite sheet, TiO 2 and tannic acid coating greatly enhanced UV stability of the avermectin (AVM). In addition, AVM@Fe-TA-TiPMt also showed pH response release due to the ion exchange and disintegration of the coating. With the disintegration of tannic acid coating and the release of tannic acid molecules, AVM was rapidly released below pH 7. AVM@Fe-TA-TiPMt exhibited enhanced insecticidal effect due to the excellent foliar retention effect and high drug release. The tannic acid-functionalized sustained-release system has achieved high foliar retention, UV stability and pH-responsive release, which is conducive to the efficient utilization of pesticides and provides valuable information for the development of clay-based pesticide formulations in the future.

Although the oxidative hydration of ethylene with hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) to ethylene glycol (EG) over Ti-MWW zeolites take advantages of step-saving and facile operation, both H 2 O 2 utilization efficiency and EG yield are relatively low, because some extra-framework octahedral Ti species are usually formed in the Ti-MWW zeolites synthesized by prevailing methods, which are detrimental to selective oxidation . In the present work, an acid-modulated isomorphous substitution method, i.e. , layered borosilicate MWW-type zeolite (ERB-1) treated with HNO 3 aqueous solution containing tetrabutyl orthotitanate (TBOT), is developed to synthesize a Ti-MWW zeolite without extra-framework octahedral Ti species under the optimized synthesis conditions. In combination with the results from extensive characterizations for the synthesized zeolites, it is found that in the zeolite prepared by the currently developed synthesis method there are more open Ti(OSi) 3 OH sites formed, resulting in the stronger Lewis acidity that is very helpful to EG production from the oxidative hydration of ethylene with H 2 O 2 , compared to the one synthesized by the prevailing method. Moreover, the developed catalyst is recyclable after the regeneration of the deactivated zeolite by calcination at high temperatures. Therefore, it is anticipated that the currently developed Ti-MWW might be industrially applicable in the one-pot synthesis of EG from ethylene with H 2 O 2 .

MgO/Mg(OH) 2 is a potential thermochemical material with high heat density and stable characteristics. Four additives including Carbons, Carbides, Nitrides and Titanates were selected for modification. The decomposition behavior and kinetics analysis were both investigated. It is found that Titanates has a catalytic effect, and the tested energy storage density can be increased to 971 J/g. The spectral absorption of candidate material with 6% graphite can reach to more than 50% and 6% CaTiO 3 has an extremely high absorption in the short wave segment. In microscopic morphology, Mg(OH) 2 particles sintered at high temperature will form adhesion agglomeration. Due to the special microstructures of candidate materials, agglomeration phenomenon is effectively alleviated and the candidate materials with 6% graphite or CaTiO 3 are both ideal modified materials. The optimized mechanism of modified material with 6% CaTiO 3 was illustrated by model. To investigate the kinetics mechanism, the model of non-isothermal decomposition was developed. The activation energies of pure material, sample with 6%graphite and sample with 6%CaTiO 3 are 141 kJ/kg, 113 kJ/kg and 122 kJ/kg respectively. The shape factor polynomials and kinetic governing equations were obtained. According to the established kinetics equations, the heating processes at 8 K, 12 K and 25 K/min were predicted. The study can provide a necessary kinetics reference for the numerical calculation of thermochemical heat storage.

Electromagnetic (EM) wave pollution is harmful to human health and environment, thus it is absolutely important to develop new electromagnetic wave absorbing materials. MAX phases have been attracted more attention as a potential candidate for electromagnetic wave absorbing materials due to their high conductivity and nanolaminated structure. Herein, two new magnetic MAX phases with multiprincipal elements ((Ti 1/3 Nb 1/3 Ta 1/3 ) 2 FeC and (Ti 0.2 V 0.2 Nb 0.2 Ta 0.2 Zr 0.2 ) 2 FeC) in which Fe atoms replace Al atoms in the A sites are successfully synthesized by an isomorphous replacement reaction of multiprincipal (Ti 1/3 Nb 1/3 Ta 1/3 ) 2 AlC and (Ti 0.2 V 0.2 Nb 0.2 Ta 0.2 Zr 0.2 ) 2 AlC MAX phases with Lewis acid salt (FeCl 2 ). (Ti 1/3 Nb 1/3 Ta 1/3 ) 2 FeC and (Ti 0.2 V 0.2 Nb 0.2 Ta 0.2 Zr 0.2 ) 2 FeC exhibit ferromagnetic behavior, and the Curie temperature ( T c ) are 302 and 235 K, respectively. The dual electromagnetic absorption mechanisms that include dielectric and magnetic loss, which is realized in these multiprincipal MAX phases. The minimum reflection loss (RL) of (Ti 1/3 Nb 1/3 Ta 1/3 ) 2 FeC is −44.4 dB at 6.56 GHz with 3 mm thickness, and the effective bandwidth is 2.48 GHz. Additionally, the electromagnetic wave absorption properties of the magnetic MAX phases indicate that magnetic loss also plays an important role besides dielectric loss. This work shows a promising composition-design strategy to develop MAX phases with good EM wave absorption performance via simultaneously regulating dielectric and magnetic loss together.

The widespread use of titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) in the food industry has brought about human safety risks related to nanotoxicity. In this study, food-related TiO2 NPs (anatase, 40 nm) were given to rats by oral gavage for 90 days at doses of 10, 100, and 1000 mg/kg bw. An additional two satellite groups underwent the same protocol for 45 days and for 90 days followed by a 28 day recovery. TiO2 NPs tended to agglomerate together in H2O, AGJ, and AIJ. No systemic toxicity was observed after 90 day agglomerated TiO2 NP exposure with no Ti distribution in major tissues/organs. Furthermore, TiO2 NP consumption for 90 days had no impact on microbiota diversity; the community structure of the gut microbiota is shifted to some extent at the genus level. Collectively, the NOAEL of agglomerated TiO2 NPs for 90 days of oral administration was 1000 mg/kg bw, the highest dose tested in male and female rats.

Water pollution is a dreadful affair that has incessantly aggravated, exposing our planet to danger. In particular, the persistent nitro aromatic compound like nitrophenols causes anxiety to the researchers due to their hazardous impacts, excessive usage, and removal difficulty. For this purpose, a novel multi-featured composite was constructed based on κ-Carrageenan (κ-Carr), MOF (MIL-125(Ti)), and magnetic Fe 3 O 4 for efficient adsorptive removal of o-nitrophenol (o-NP). Interestingly, BET measurements revealed the high surface area of Fe 3 O 4 -κ-Carr/MIL-125(Ti) of about 163.27 m 2 /g, while VSM showed its excellent magnetic property (20.34 emu/g). The comparison study pointed out the synergistic effect between Fe 3 O 4 , κ-Carr, and MIL-125(Ti), forming a composite with an excellent adsorption performance toward o-NP. The adsorption data obeyed pseudo-second-order kinetic model, and Freundlich isotherm model was better fitted than Langmuir and Temkin. Furthermore, Langmuir verified the supreme adsorption capacity of o-NP onto Fe 3 O 4 -κ-Carr/MIL-125(Ti) since the computed q max reached 320.26 mg/g at pH 6 and 25 °C. Furthermore, the XPS results postulated that the adsorption mechanism pf o-NP proceeded via H-bonding, π - π interaction, and electron donor–acceptor interactions. Interestingly, Fe 3 O 4 -κ-Carr/MIL-125(Ti) composite retained good adsorption characteristics after reusing for five cycles, suggesting its viable applicability as an efficient, renewable, and easy-separable adsorbent for removing nitro aromatic pollutants.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) as photocatalysts have received increasing attention. In this work, a dual metal-substituted UiO-66-NH2 (Ti/Ce-MOF) containing different Ti/Ce mole ratios (x = 0–2.46) has been prepared via post-synthetic exchange between Ce-UiO-66 and TiCl4, followed by amination. The solid had a high surface area (828–937 m2/g) and a large pore volume (0.451–0.507 m3/g). Under visible light, Ti/Ce-MOF showed x-dependent activity for H2O reduction and oxidation on a film electrode, respectively. However, such a change for H2 evolution in a Na2S/Na2SO3 aqueous solution was observed only after CdS loading. In combination with the photoluminescence and band parameters, we propose that the photoactivity of Ti/Ce-MOF for redox reaction is determined by its ability for electron transfer. Furthermore, there is an interfacial electron transfer from Ti/Ce-MOF to CdS and a hole transfer from CdS to Ti/Ce-MOF, respectively, significantly improving the efficiency of charge separation for redox reactions. This work offers a new insight that Ti substitution benefits the performance of Ce-based MOF.
